MR Bauhaus Edition from knoll international

Inspired by the lines of tubular iron rockers designed in Europe during the mid-19th century, Mies van der Rohe elevated industrial materials to art. The KnollStudio logo and the signature of Mies van der Rohe are stamped into each piece. All pieces are made with tubular steel frames. The upholstered leather seats are crafted into a series of quilted and seamed sections.

For the centennial of the founding of the Bauhaus, the MR Collection – which owes a great deal to the ideals of the artistic movement connected with the school – has been revised with new fabrics and leathers for the coverings. MR has been produced with a special stamp on the structure to mark the 100th anniversary of Bauhaus.
